Part 1
CF
Got A friend in B.C.,
CF
know some winders kissing N.Y.,
CF
I wanna buy a motercycle,
CF
And cut up to some farm.
CBbF
Somewhere in this cowshit county,
CBbF
where the hills are round and green,
CBbF
round and green, round and green,
CBbF
where the hills are round and green!
CF
Late nights make me really tired,
CF
all this jamming gives me a headaches,
CF
like listening to earthquakes,
CF
all wired up for rock and roll,
FGCF
Mama only listens to the radio,
FGCFEbCFEb
Papa only watches the hockey game,
FGCB/CAm
This suburb rocks with the eddie van Wailers,
GF
God save the Queen-- She made you a MORON
Part 2
Intro C/GC
Well I heard Wendel talking to Dave Hodge last night
FGC
he said that he was confident and keen
he said that Jacques Plante did'nt die
so all of us could glide
FGC
he said that hard work is the ethic of the free.
CHORUS
FC
Wendel was a man with a stick in his hands
GCGC
he learned how to play in Kelvington S.A.S.K.
F
You'll wish that you had died
C
when Wendel has your hide
GC/G
'cause he does it the Canadian way
C
so now we sit around on the couch and watch T.V.,
FGC
And we see Wendel leading the team
C
If god made Clark on the 7th day,
FGC
He knew what He was doing if He did......If He did!
CHORUS
CFG
Bam Bam.- digga digga damm (4x)
